He is Tokkebi

Is it the sword that is stuck in his chest,
Or is it the flame of love that is bothering him?
Someone blew out the candle, come quickly!
Did he know that this would ever happen?

He walked the earth for a long time, for a thousand years,
He lost his loved ones, the sword was stuck like a splinter,
He screamed, he prayed, but did not hear the answer,
He walked forward, taking away someone's tears along the way.
He heard screams and groans, in response he helped,
He warmed children's hands with his love,
But... Of course, after a thousand years he got tired,
He did not pray, did not put a candle at the head of the bed.

Is it the sword that is stuck in his chest,
Or is it the flame of love that is bothering him?
Someone blew out the candle, come quickly!
Did he know that this would ever happen?

But now...What will happen, what will give him a moment?
 Even if they call, this call, what will it change?
Someone cries and begs, his cry calls,
Someone's pain, to rest, as always will it replace?
It's too late. Lightning flashes and the rain keeps falling.
And the letters have already written everything down forever,
And what hand took this ice in droplets,
Blue or blue? Will it melt? Hardly!

He walks so long, and there is no end to the road,
Remembers that he outlived everyone who was once dear,
Morning, evening, day, noon, and winter dawn,
Sits by the tombstones and counts the losses.

But one day... One day at a rainy dawn,
Someone's lips blew out a candle and called,
He came, he appeared, like the sun's answer,
Although he hardly had any hope for happiness.
He looked at her and did not believe his eyes,
He had already seen her in the dark past.
 There, a thousand years ago, he saw her there,
In the kingdom that he now passionately hated.

He lived too long, but forgot everything in an instant,
Just looked into the pool of those dear eyes,
Let the candle burn out, let the scream die down behind it.
And the smoke of the hateful centuries will go away.

He is Tokkebi, Tokkebi, Tokkebi he is!

Is it the sword that is stuck in his chest,
Or is it the flame of love that is haunting him?
Someone blew out the candle, come quickly!
Who knew that something like this would ever happen?
